Grilled Chicken Sliders with Avocado

Grilled Chicken Sliders with Avocado

I saw the chicken sliders on the Pioneer Woman site recently and started craving them. I chose to make them healthier by not adding bacon and cheese and instead topped them with avocado, tomato, onion, and lettuce. They were super quick and easy to make and they were a huge hit with my family. My son didn’t like the avocado but loved the rest of it and my daughter said they were amazing. My husband and I both loved them too.

How to Make Grilled Chicken Sliders with Avocado

Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise (place your hand on the chicken breast then carefully cut horizontally) then cut each portion in half.  Lay a piece of wax paper on top and pound them gently with a mallet until they are even in thickness.

Season each side with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste.

Coat a grill pan with olive oil and heat over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the chicken and cook for a few minutes until golden brown then flip over and cook for another 2 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set on a plate with a tin foil tent placed loosely on top. Place the slider buns in the grill pan and let them toast for a few minutes; remove from the pan and spread some mayonnaise on the bun. Place a piece of chicken on the bottom bun followed by avocado, tomato, onion, and lettuce followed by the top of the bun. Serve immediately and enjoy.

  2. That’s so funny…I saw this recipe on PW’s site and have been craving them ever since, too! I love the changes you made to the recipe, but I think I will add the bacon when I make them! 😉

  3. So glad your husband loved yours as well as his. Maybe he was trying to tell you to make more the next time? Chicken sandwiches are wonderful, and little ones would be so much fun!

  4. Came across your site yesterday and saw the sliders. Made them for my family and they loved them! Thanks.

  5. You had me at chicken and avacado. Seriously, such a fantastic combination. I saw a recipe for avacado chicken salad and since then have been craving both.
